13th-century flamenco...

Check out these images from 13th-century Spain. Some of them are Christians jamming with Musilms... http://www.rmguitar.co.uk/cantigas.htm I don't believe for a minute that we know how to make better instruments now, or how to play better now, or how to rock better now. These guys were the Paco's and VA's of their day...many centuries ago. I wonder how their music sounded? Oh, and by the way, the songs they played survive, words and music...we just don't know how they played it, what tuning they used, etc. OK, maybe not flamenco 'as we know it', but not so different, I imagine.
